I'll have rooted cuttings of Passiflora caerulea and Mexican Flame Vine. Possibly a couple from Black Elder too.

Plants -

Yarrow 'Terra Cotta'

Vinca major 'Variegated'

Monarda 'Jacob Cline' - this is the true red bee balm

Chocolate Flower

Variegated Aquilegia, 3 kinds - pink flower, purple flower, or blue flower

Aquilegia 'Chocolate Soldier'

Chives

Spearmint

Horehound

Motherwort

Echinacea 'Magnus'

Various carnivorous plants, both indoor (tropical) and outdoor (temperate). Let me know what you are looking for. Please do a bit of research on their care first. They can't be grown like a standard garden plant. - http://www.sarracenia.com/faq.html - good place to learn about them :-)

    Would you like a bunch of pots & trays in trade for your perennial list posted? You've been generous before with your plants & helped us load up at GE in March, so I can repay a bit now with bunches of 2", 4", quart, gallon square & round. Just tell me what you'd like.

    By the way the chives you gave me in March have been fantastic! We divided them, put them around the front of the SFG beds, & have been eating them ever since. They are huge in comparison to our garlic chives just getting growing again. Hubby says we should grow more of 'em.

    I would love to have some of your variegated Aquilegia, what are you looking for in trade?

    Is the chocolate flower the yellow one that smells like chocolate (Berlandiera lyrata), or is it the chocolate cosmos (Cosmos atrosanguineus)? I'd love to have the Berlandiera if you have it! And my Chocolate Soldier Columbine didn't come back, so I'd love one of those, too! I'm hoping to get my page updated later today with the plants I have available for trade.
    Thanks,
    Tammy

    Bejoy2 - The Chocolate Flower is Berlandiera :-)

    Corrine- I'm glad the chives are doing well for you! I have no idea what variety they are, my plants originally came from my inlaws homestead :-)

    dawiff- I'm looking for a wide variety of things. I attached a link to my want list on Google Docs.

    Alaskanamazon, I have some sprouts of Dianthus barbatus 'Sooty' and Lupine 'Morello Cherry.' Right now they are just babies with seed leaves, but hopefully by April 24 they'll be bigger and have true leaves. I've heard Lupine prefers to be planted early, and doesn't transplant well because of a taproot, so you're probably best getting that as sprouts anyway.

    Ooooh, can I have a Berlandiera and a chocolate soldier columbine? I have posted a list of the plants I have available to trade. Let me know if you see anything you want.
    Thanks,

    Alaskanamazon, I checked your list & have a few things recently transplanted, but could dig up if you think they'd wouldn't mind it. I've usually left plants in place for at least 6 months.
    -corydalis, yellow (enough for 4" pot)
    -yarrow, mystery color
    -yarrow, terra cotta (Could we swap some of that this fall if it's ready to be dug into? or next spring?

    I know you have loads of sunshine, so I have a artemesia limelight or something that (variegated wormwood) I just recently divided & potted up in 2" pots. They're tiny starts, but should grow quickly according to what I've read.

    Do you want some trays and/or pots?

    Hi There,
    I'd love one of your echinacea. Are you looking for anything special? I don't have my list up yet, but have quite a few perennials I can dig. Will get my list up in the next week. Thanks!

    I would love a start of your passiflora. I'm bringing a wide variety of Pacific Coast irises if you're interested. Or if you have a wishlist I'd be happy to see what I might have in the garden that would fit your needs.

    I have sent e-mails to everyone. If you haven't heard back from me on a swap then please send me an e-mail through GW - don't post here because I won't see it in time.

    I'll check my e-mail before I leave in the AM but won't have time to check GardenWeb too..
